Description
The main objective of this research project is the development of new Computational Intelligence (CI) methodologies, with emphasis on Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), Evolutionary computation (EC) and Swarm Intelligence (SI), which will be inherently designed tο address the particular characteristics of big mobility data, with the aim of improving public transport services and as a result to enhance people life quality and to maximize environmental benefits. This research project aims to design “attractive” for passengers, and simultaneously “efficient” and “economical” public transports. In order to accomplish this, it is necessary to study tasks such as: bus capacity / passenger load prediction, bus arrival time prediction, bus timetable optimization (scheduling), bus predictive maintenance, bus Eco-driving behavior, safety and collision risk on intelligent transportation systems.
